# Augentik > Augentik is the compliance intelligence layer for finance and accounting teams. Purpose-built AI that ensures continuous compliance across US GAAP, SEC reporting, and SOX. Every answer is grounded in the actual rules, cited to the specific paragraph or provision. No hallucinations. No generic summaries. The best finance teams will not be the ones with the most people. They will be the ones with the right systems. ## What Augentik Does Augentik provides autonomous compliance intelligence for finance and accounting teams: - **Standards Interpretation Guidance**: Real-time, expert-level US GAAP interpretation. Ask any technical accounting question and receive implementation-ready guidance with specific ASC paragraph citations. Covers ASC 606 (Revenue Recognition), ASC 718 (Stock Compensation), ASC 842 (Leases), ASC 350-40/350-50 (Software & Website Costs), and more. - **SEC Regulatory Guidance**: Comprehensive guidance on SEC rules, regulations, and form submissions. Covers Securities Act Rules (Rule 144, Regulation D, Rule 10b-5, Section 14(a) proxy rules), SEC Filing Forms (Form S-1, 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, Form S-8), Reg S-K, Reg S-X, and non-GAAP measures. Every answer evaluates all applicable SEC rules and provisions. - **SOX Readiness**: Guidance on Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, internal controls over financial reporting (ICFR), control design and testing, and COSO framework application. - **Continuous Compliance Monitoring**: Autonomous agents that monitor compliance posture in real time, flag risks before they become audit findings, detect control failures, and surface revenue compliance gaps. - **Audit Readiness**: Continuous financial evidence collection and control monitoring. Teams are always audit-ready because the system never stops working. ## How It Works Augentik is built on domain-specific AI models designed exclusively for finance and accounting.
